https://snowboardingprofiles.com/__trashed-2Nothing special, but no obvious weaknesses either — a medium-flex, medium-width all-mountain boot with two BOA dials. It balances slow riding and fast carving well, so it isn't fussy about which board you pair it with (4–6/10 stiffness is ideal). The outsole quality is good, while the footbed and liner toggle look cheap. It runs half a size large.
